Anti-wrinkle

Over the last decade, the beauty industry has seen a significant increase of both men and women seeking an alternative to anti-ageing treatments. Anti-wrinkle injections – most commonly known as Toxin – have been the most popular cosmetic procedure to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles since its FDA approval in 2002. These injections have also been used medically to treat migraines and severe headaches, and excessive underarm perspiration.

What is Botulinum Toxin Type A?

Botulinum Toxin Type A, most commonly known as it trade name Toxin, has been used safely in medicine since 1920, and was approved for cosmetic purposes by the FDA in 2002.
‍
Toxin is produced by a bacterium called Clostridium Botulinum. The toxin works by blocking signals to the injected muscle, temporarily stopping the muscle from moving. This, in turn, stop the skin from contracting, causing the wrinkles to disappear or soften. It also works on glands to stop the production of excessive perspiration in certain areas.

Results typically last three months, but results will vary from person to person; some individuals may only see results from two months, whereas others may see results lasting six months. However, this is rare.
